Wilson Sonsini

The firm is losing one of its corporate stars to Kirkland & Ellis a few years after it had to rebuild its M&A practice.

Ninth Circuit

Props to the court for allowing cameras in for the Barry Bonds criminal appeal, even if there weren't any major fireworks to capture.

Jamie Harmon

The trial judge may have given the criminal defense attorney a gift in junking the jury's money laundering conviction, but the Ninth Circuit apparently isn't convinced that granting a new trial was the right thing to do.

Melinda Haag

Her crackdown on a medical marijuana dispensary can proceed, but it's hard to say if that's good news for the U.S. attorney considering all the flak she gets from friends on the topic.
